''not going to happen because it would completely undermine one of the main raison d'etre's for the existence of the EU''

Anyone suggesting that movement of goods staying within the UK is something that the EU should impose checks on is completely missing the obvious point.

rises in interest can take months to take effect and will not affect everyone equally - indeed some like savers will be better off. Mortgage holders will have more of an immediate impact placed upon them if on a variable or tracker mortgage and others when their fixed rate expires.

Rail strikes are starting with Starmer's response saying that the Conservatives want the strikes to take place - he is so transparent

I may as well say, the fact is the future will not be as bad as some people think.

obviously bad for the memory .
The 2010 government started with the conservatives having to get in bed with the LibUndems for 5 years at the start of the weaning off process from the Blair/Brown years . Boris won a landslide victory, so hopefully it will be a very long time before a Labour mess needs clearing up again.

''Has the market gone mad?''

that is for you to decide

a pull back is a positive for the relentless purchasing and cancellation of shares.

for under 2093p the shares I sold for over £23 last month

order in at 40.95
